Pocket Observation Volume 1

Each Pocket Observation contains a curriculum designed to help you reclaim your attention, preserve information and facilitate knowledge sharing. Engage with the curriculum, but do not feel confined to it.

With this Pocket Observation we will:

1. Remember that information is our human inheritance

2. Consider what we know and how we know it

3. Think about the positive impact of information technology

4. Learn what documents are and what documents can never be

5. Understand how authoritarians use documentation technology to obscure information + control individuals

6. Remember why authoritarians fail

7. Practice preserving and sharing information

8. Practice seeking information

Hello! My name is Meg Conley. I am a writer, mother and observer. My work appears in places like Harper’s Bazaar, The Guardian, BBC and NPR. I create one half of Pocket Observation. The other half is created by you. I am grateful we get to be observant together.

Follow along as I complete this Pocket Observation at Pocket Observatory. At that link you'll find exclusive writing, audio notes, free art, recommended resources and fillable PDF version of this Pocket Observation. You will also find other issues of Pocket Observation.
